Our Commitment to Corporate Social Responsibility

June 2025

At Step Change Outsourcing, we are deeply committed to fostering an ethical, responsible, and sustainable culture. CSR is not just a box we tick—it’s embedded in who we are and how we operate. We actively seek ways to enhance both our internal practices and external impact, particularly within our local community.

Our Focus Areas:

  • Community Engagement: We strive to make a meaningful contribution to our local community and encourage our team to get involved in social initiatives
  • Charitable Involvement: We maintain strong relationships with local charities and regularly participate in fundraising and support activities
  • Ethical Operations: We prioritise ethical sourcing and partner with suppliers who share our values
  • Human Rights: We are committed to ensuring there is no modern slavery in any part of our business or supply chain

 

Our Key Objectives:

  • Volunteering Programme – Launching in Winter 2025, this initiative will enable employees to dedicate time to local community projects
  • Charity Support – We aim to participate in a minimum of four local charity events per year
  • Environmental Responsibility
    • We continue to track and reduce our carbon footprint, working closely with our Facilities Manager to support green initiatives
    • We remain committed to being a zero-plastic organisation
    • We operate as a paperless office
  • Ethical Sourcing – We prioritise working with ethical and, where possible, local suppliers to ensure our supply chain aligns with our values.

Just last week, we held a fundraising initiative in support of a local hospice. Thanks to the generosity of our teammates, we raised over £500—an amount matched by the company—bringing the total to more than £1,000. A small effort with a meaningful impact to our local community.

We are committed to continuously evaluating our objectives and conducting an annual review of our CSR programme to ensure we are making progress toward our mission. CSR is an ongoing journey, and we’re proud to contribute to a better future—for our teammates, our partners, and our community.
